Two more mice were caught last week before we left. (All three we've caught so far were in the sink for the washing machine, so no big points for creativity here.) They were slow, possibly from excessive fornication. From the cubic yard of mouse shit scooped out of our shelves and drawers over the past couple of weeks I suppose we should have known we had more than one.

Anyway, we're back from Pittsburgh, and dadgumit if I didn't open the pantry to find another one scurrying up the electrical wires. Quite impressive, really. Though the question of why the mouse was eating kosher l'pesach egg noodles, when it has a whole house's worth of chametz to itself in the basement, remains unanswered.

Hmm. Perhaps we need the services of a professional.

The mouse is sensitive to ownership. It wants to eat your food, not the food you sold to some random gentile last week.

Either that or it's a weirdo that actually prefers Pesach food to rest-of-the-year food, in which case you should send it off to a lab for further study. :-)

You know how it is -- everyone else loves matzah! :-)

Yeah, I don't get that. I mean yeah, I eat it occasionally at other times of the year (using up leftovers, need to keep bread for a week of camping and still have it be bread, that sort of thing), but I don't seek it out. I can understand the attraction to macaroons, but matzah?
